GREATEST EVER COLONY CHAMPIONSHIPS? Hypnosis May Aid Australian Some Of The Best We
Swimmers To Set Up New
Records At Cardiff
Sydney.
Whon Australia's swimmers take to the water during the Empire Games at Cardiff this year, they may swim as if they believed an alligator was chasing them. This has already been tried by the swimming team's official coach, Forbes Carlile, who has for years, practised ad- vanced training ideas on Australian swimmers, including the use of hypnosis.
The former Olympic gold medallist, Judy Joy Davies, openly credits her 1948 Olympic 100 metres backstroke record to her adoption of Carlile's training methods which at first she avoided..
"I fed that it has a deadening ence on them, so I knap them But some me before the race and just leave them with the suggestion that they will go fester as the race progressos that they will not feel tired or worried," he said,

Carlile likes to make one thing clear. He never sends his pupils into the
water to race in a hypnotic trance.
